output for each unit crank angle in synchronization with the rotation of a crankshaft
in the engine, different numbers of cylinder discrimination signals are output
corresponding to cylinders to be discriminated during a predetermined crank angle
period, and a count value of the crank angle signals to be output after a cranking
start is held each time the cylinder discrimination signal is output. By comparing
the count value of the number of the crank angle signal outputs at a first cylinder
discrimination timing with the past count values, to detect the number of the
cylinder discrimination signals output during the predetermined crank angle period,
and first cylinder discrimination after the cranking start is performed based on the
number of the detected cylinder discrimination signals.

Abstract: Image data supplied to an image forming
apparatus are converted into image data linearly
correlated with the image density, and the image
ratio is calculated by dividing the number of
pixels in which the toner is deposited at the image
formation of thus converted image data on a print
medium, with a value obtained by multiplying the
total pixel number corresponding to the size of the
print medium with the number of gradation levels
per pixel. Then the toner amount consumed in the
image formation based on the entered image data is
determined by multiplying the image ratio, the size
of the print medium to be used and the toner amount
consumed per unit area in a solid image formation.

Abstract: We have discovered a method for plasma etching a carbon-containing silicon oxide film which provides excellent etch profile control, a rapid etch rate of the carbon/containing silicon oxide film, and high selectivity for etching the carbon-containing silicon oxide film preferentially to an overlying photoresist masking material.  Then the method of the inention is used, a highter carbon content in the carbon/containing silicon oxide film results in a faster etch rate, at least up to ta carbon content of 20 atomic percent.  In particular, the carbon-containgin silicon oxide film results in a faster etch rate, at least up to a carbon content of 20 atomic percent.  In particular, the carbon containg silicon oxide film is plama etched using a plama generated from source gas comprising NH3 and CxFy.  It is necessary to achieve the proper balance between the relative amounts of NH3 and CxFy in the plasma source gas in order to provide a balance between etch by/product polymer deposition and removal on various surfaces of the substrate being etched. The NH3 gas functions to 'clean up' deposited polzmer on the photoresist surface, on the etched surface, and on process chamber surfaces.  The atomic ratio of carbon: nitrogen in the plasma source gas typically ranges from about 0.3:1 to about 3:1.  We have found that C2F6 and C4F8 provide excellent etch rates during etching of carbon-containing silicon oxide films.

Abstract: L'invention concerne, dans certains modes de réalisation, un système de détermination d'emplacement comprenant plusieurs émetteurs et au moins un récepteur. Chaque émetteur transmet un signal comprenant un unique composant se répétant périodiquement, et le récepteur reçoit un signal de référence. En fonction du signal de référence reçu, le système de détermination d'emplacement identifie un emplacement estimé du récepteur. Pour chaque émetteur d'un ensemble d'émetteurs, le système calcule un décalage de phase entre le signal de référence reçu et une réplique du composant de l'émetteur se répétant périodiquement. Le système identifie également un emplacement approximatif du récepteur et un temps de réception approximatif du signal reçu. Le système utilise alors l'emplacement et le moment approximatifs identifiés, et les décalages de phase calculés, pour calculer des pseudodistances pour l'ensemble des émetteurs. Enfin, le système identifie l'emplacement estimé du récepteur en utilisant les pseudodistances calculées.

IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 2002-02-28
Abstract: A system for converting a single input beam of light into a plurality of
spatially or angularly shifted output beams, each having a different wavelength
supplies the single input beam of light to the first of a plurality of cascaded acousto-optical
and/or stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) wavelength-shifting devices in
optical communication with each other. This causes the first wavelength-shifting
device to produce a first output beam having a wavelength shifted from that of the
input beam. The output beam from each of the cascaded wavelength-shifting devices
is supplied to the next such device to cause each successive wavelength-shifting
device to produce an output beam having a wavelength shifted from the wavelength
of the input beam to that device. Thus, variations in the wavelength of the input
beam or in temperature or strain of the wavelength-shifting devices will cause the
wavelengths of the output beams to uniformly vary, thus maintaining constant intra-wavelength
spacings among the output beams.
